Lonely Planet review

Pre-Hispanic fare is the specialty of this cantina-style restaurant. Sample maguey worms (in season), grasshoppers, wild boar, and other items that have gone from being customary fare on Mexican tables to gourmet delicacies. Fortino Rojas, Chon's adventurous chef, incorporates these primordial ingredients into dishes Moctezuma could never have imagined. How about deer meatballs in huitlacoche sauce, chrysanthemums filled with ant larvae, crocodile steaks laced with pumpkin seed sauce?
